Hi Chris -

Yes!  There was an Isaac Francis born in 1826 and he married Elizabeth Hopkins.  Is this your line? 

(I just got your message on Ancestry and I'm replying right now).

Hi Diane --

I'm the other person interested in Caerbigyn!  I'm curious to learn more about your Williams family.  Where did your Williams' settle in the States?  Any chance that it was in Pennsylvania? 

I think that Roy gave you my e-mail address, feel free to write me anytime!  So happy to find someone else who is interested in all of this! :)

All the best,
Susan

Carmarthenshire / David Williams and Justina Francis
« on: Tuesday 25 August 09 17:38 BST (UK)  »
Hi everyone -

I'm new here (though I've been lurking for a wee bit!) and I am hoping that someone might connect to one of the branches of my family tree. 

My ggg grandfather was David WILLIAMS.  He was born on 12 November 1812 in Llanelly.  On 21 September 1838, he married Justina FRANCIS in the Llanelly Parish Church.  Justina was born around 1820.  She was the daughter of David FRANCIS and Justina ARNOLD. 

David WILLIAMS and Justina FRANCIS had the following children:

Sarah WILLIAMS (b. 27 September 1839 in Llanelly, d. 1885 in Pittsburgh, PA) <--my gg grandmother
David WILLIAMS (b. Around 1841)
William WILLIAMS (b. 1844, d. 1852)
Thomas WILLIAMS (b. 1846)
John WILLIAMS (b. 1849)
Walter WILLIAMS (b. 1851)
John WILLIAMS (b. 1857)
Harriet WILLIAMS (b. 29 October 1859, d. 22 November 1933)


I know that Harriet WILLIAMS married Thomas LEWIS and they lived on Tunnel Road.  I have a letter that Harriet wrote around 1905 to my gg aunt and have been able to piece together information about her family. 

I'm hoping that someone out there might connect to my Williams' family.  They seem to have all kept around the Wern area. 

Then...I have another related mystery as well......

In David WILLIAMS' will, it mentions the following:  "I give and bequeath to each of my above named sons and daughters, ground to build a house upon a plot of land owned by me at Tymawr near the town of Llanelly.  The first of them who shall build must do so at one end of said plot of ground so that the houses when completed form a consecutive row of houses."  My question is....Does anyone know where Tymawr is/was? 

Susan
